She joined her co-star Selena Gomez on the red carpet, who looked sensational in a figure-hugging floor length dress.
The American singer and actress, 32, stars as Emilia Perez’s wife Jessi Del Monte, with Karla Sofía Gascón playing Jessi.
The film’s plot reads on IMDb: ‘In Mexico, a lawyer receives an unexpected offer to help a feared cartel boss retire from his business and disappear forever by becoming the woman he’s always dreamed of being.’
Emilia Perez first premiered at the 77th Cannes Film Festival back in May, where it competed for the Palme d’Or.
The project eventually won the Jury Prize during the festival, while the female ensemble won the Best Actress award.
In August, the musical crime comedy was released in theaters in France – and is slated to become available on Netflix in the U.S. and U.K. starting on November 13.
The movie was also selected as the French entry for Best International Feature Film for the upcoming 97th Academy Awards.
Gold Derby predicted Saldana is currently most likely to win an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for the movie.

Nominees for the elite honors have not yet been announced but already Saldana and others have been generating awards buzz for their performances this past year.
Variety previously reported that Saldana and her co-star Selena Gomez will pursue Oscar nominations in the supporting actress category while Karla Sofía Gascón will contend for a lead actress nomination.
Gold Derby isn’t the only publication envisioning a Oscar nomination for Saldana.
She is currently ranked number one on a list of predicted nominees by Variety, with her Emilia Perez co-star Selena coming in at fifth.
